Working browser surface: Field guides — documentation — Inspect the guide and persist local checkpoints. This route is local-only; provider, credential, database, customer, publication, deployment, and production effects remain held.

NOT RUN

Disposition

HELD

Reviewer

Not recorded

Receipt

Not recorded

This page defines proposed acceptance criteria for the docs_urls lane. It does not execute tests, establish compliance, qualify the subject, or authorize an effect.

Outcome definitions

Verified

All stated evidence and acceptance requirements passed for the exact reviewed revision; this still does not authorize deployment or an external effect.

Failed

One or more deterministic acceptance requirements failed with an inspectable reason.

Needs review

Evidence or interpretation is incomplete, conflicting, or awaits an identified human reviewer.

Held

Authority, required evidence, safe execution conditions, or a principal gate is absent.

The current record remains NOT RUN / HELD. These definitions describe candidate outcomes only.

Proposed deterministic acceptance tests

Route-resolution and distinct-content checks apply only to the admitted canonical routes in this record. Held source-proposed extensions are non-resolving proposals and are excluded.

• Every documentation route has a distinct purpose and includes content not duplicated verbatim by the other routes.
• The overview route states the guide purpose, audience, proposal-only lifecycle, record ownership, and held claims.
• The steps route contains an ordered workflow from scope through evidence, comparison, handoff, and review.
• The tools route lists only observed native surfaces and explains their bounded role; it does not claim connected web behavior.
• The forms route exposes implementable fields for scope, provenance, comparison, and qualification.
• The examples route uses clearly labelled hypothetical examples and does not present deployment or qualification as fact.
• The qualification route distinguishes documented, locally prototyped, needs review, and held states without declaring any Apple capability production-ready.
• The related-jobs route links only the supplied related jobs and explains the handoff value of each link.
• Each capability record preserves canonical ID, origin, source locator, SHA-256, provenance, revision, lifecycle, tags, links, and attachments when available.
• Missing evidence, conflicting sources, unavailable platform behavior, accessibility gaps, and unsupported production assumptions produce visible held or needs-review states.
• Forms are keyboard operable, use explicit labels, preserve focus and error context, and do not rely on color alone for lifecycle state.
• No route claims provider connection, credentials, database authority, customer indexing, publication, deployment, or qualification.

Negative and held-state tests

• A named Apple framework or native surface may be mistaken for a connected or implemented Guth feature.
• Platform versions, device availability, permissions, and behavior may change; source freshness must remain visible.
• App Intents, Spotlight, sync, and cross-device behavior can create privacy, identity, and data-ownership ambiguity.
• PointGuard context could be mistaken for canonical record ownership; specialist apps remain execution and record owners.
• Accessibility requirements may be omitted if comparison records focus only on feature availability.
• Hypothetical examples may be copied as production claims unless clearly marked proposed or held.
• Source URLs or local file references may be incomplete, inaccessible, stale, or unverifiable.

Qualification claim boundary

Potentially allowed only after the stated evidence

• This is a proposed, source-backed guide structure for investigating Apple capabilities.
• The guide can document questions, evidence, comparisons, open issues, and human review receipts.
• Observed GuthHub routes provide prototype or index surfaces for local notes, files, projects, approvals, logs, search, and PointGuard context.
• Qualification states can be represented as needs review, approved, or held when supported by preserved evidence.

Still held

• No Apple capability is claimed to be implemented, deployed, connected, indexed for customers, published, or production-ready.
• No provider, credential, database, customer, or external publication effect is claimed.
• No App Intents, Spotlight, SwiftUI, sync, cross-device, or native integration is claimed to be qualified.
• No instrument is designated because the supplied verified-instrument directory contains no necessary Apple capability-index instrument.
• No production qualification, customer indexing, or release approval is implied by the existence of this guide.
